Thanks.

[code]<? if ($_POST['submit']) {   $query = $_POST(['query']);   include("connect.php");   $sql = "INSERT INTO `User` (`name`) VALUES ('$query')";   mysql_query($sql);   mysql_close();   echo "$query has been recorded!"; } ?> <form method="POST" action="index.php"> <input type="text" name="query"> <input type="submit" value="Submit" name="submit"> </form> [/code] AllI did was move the PHP to the start of the file, add a quote into your HTML section and remove the quotes around the $_POST bit. Then I surrounded the lot with an if() statement to only run the code if the submit button was pressed. [/quote] I did as exactly as you said, and I got this... Parse error: parse error, unexpected '[', expecting ')' in /home/www/shaolinwars.awardspace.com/index.php on line 3

When I submit the form, I get... Array(['query']) has been recorded! When I check the database, nothing has been recorded. The code is... <form method="POST" action="index.php"> <input type="text name="query"> <input type="submit" value="Submit" name="submit"> </form> <? $query = "$_POST(['query'])"; include("connect.php"); $sql = "INSERT INTO `User` (`name`) VALUES ('$query')"; mysql_query($sql); mysql_close(); echo "$query has been recorded!"; ?> What is the problem, please?
